Autodesk Design Review QuickShare

Autodesk Labs has made QuickShare available at http://quickshare.labs.autodesk.com. When you need to send a dwf file quickly, QuickShare is the answer. No software download required. No account required. Fast viewing of 2D and 3D dwf files right within the browser. When you want to showcase a design on your own website, Quickshare gives you that ability. Upload your design and use the embed tag to place the design and viewer anywhere.

Upload the file.

  2. the embed works on typepad which makes me wonder if something blogger specific is causing a conflict. I will dig deeper into this and get back to you.

  3. Hi Jimmy- I've been looking into this, and it turns out you can edit the Blogger.com template to make it IE9 compatible. Their templates default to IE7 compatibility mode.
